One of the main causes for children taking the wrong path is simply a growing lack of purpose in life.<\/p>\n

In order to ensure their well-being, we have to teach our children about the era we are entering and how vital it is for all of humanity. They must understand that we are living in a time where everything is interconnected, where everyone is a part of a single family, and everyone is dependent upon everyone else. It is an era where we must reeducate ourselves and our children to become global and integral elements of society. In this manner children will discover their uniqueness, and how each of them can provide the world with a unique contribution. It is only at that point, when children grasp the big picture, that they will feel responsible for their part in society.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
